Like I said above, you should benchmark quantized versions. With quantization, the same models can be ran at much cheaper hardware, but quality loss is real and this kind of benchmark is an ideal place to put a finger on it.

I would love to see such comparisons but with quantized versions, because quantization allows running models on smaller hardware with some quality loss. I am running Qwen3.6-35B-A3B quantized to int4 on an A6000 card that was otherwise just sitting around idle. It works up to a degree, but I would love to see benchmarks comparing different quantizations of several models, especially in quality. This is an important dimension in deciding whether to buy a GPU is worth it, and it is missing from this (otherwise comprehensive) article.

I am obviously missing something here, but how is it "command line"?

These services pop up from time to time. All they share a fatal flaw: accepting money for email delivery turns email from a communication medium into a service. And a service carries a different set of obligations - someone paying to send an email to me expects that they are buying my time spent on reading their email and replying promptly. I am never going to sell my time like that.

Thank you, that makes much more sense now.

Mind you, this is ICANN's description, which applies to global domains and not country domains like .me. Country registries can (and do!) assign different meanings to these statuses; for example in .pl clientRenewProhibited has a completely different meaning.

> Difficult to communicate affection, impossible to say the word love. We have no distinct word for it.

I wonder what it says about a community that its language has no word for "love".

The status that actually says the domain is suspended is serverHold.

I can post on the Internet whatever I want without providing any ID whatsover.

Sadly it is not just Medium, but a bunch of other Windows apps too. For example, in Active Presenter, typing one of the letters (I think it is Ó) stops screen recording, which makes the program unusable in many situations - I cannot record myself typing anything in Polish. Other apps similarly assign shortcuts to Alt + Ctrl + letter, somehow overriding the keyboard layout driver.

The headline made me fear that I will need to shell out a few more bucks for 4164 DRAM chips, but fortunately this does not seem to be the case.

DDR3 is not "retro", for chrissakes.

They sort of did this with BASIC 4.0 and later for Commodores. We had CATALOG for listing files, SCRATCH for deleting them, HEADER for formatting and so forth. These were standard BASIC commands, and could be used in programs as well as directly.

But how would you place this Z8000 assembly in the memory to be executed? Most likely via some script that used the terminal too, so simply calling the routines via the terminal was easier, though slower (IIRC formatting the drive took over 2 hours).
